Nice guide
Small correction:

There is shorter way than "Click Browse and go to your Rivatuner\Tools\RivaTunerStatisticsServer folder and click on "RivaTunerStatisticsServer.exe" and click Open."

Instead of browsing for the server executable manually, you may just specify %RTSS% macro as a path. When processing it, RT will automatically expand this macro to fully qualified path to server.

Also, I recommend to specify "-f" command line switch when server startup is associated with hotkey. -f enables fast server load scenario without 3D runtime initialization, so it will prevent 3D applications from loosing focus when server is loaded with hotkey directly during playing the game.

This pic tells nothing, ensure that you've properly set up each graph you wanna display in OSD.

One more important note: when fast server start scenario is used (i.e. when the server is started with -f command line switch), the server uses previously precached 3D API information. So it must be started at least once in normal mode after installation before starting in fast mode. When you reinstall 3D runtimes (i.e. install new version of DirectX), the server also must be started at least once in normal mode to precache the changes.

Great info. I will include it in the guide.

Thanks again and keep it coming. Any other suggestions appreciated !

The pic is just to prove that a I am runing the statistics sever.Not to rude,but how am I going to "set up" the framerate graph if the framerate "set up" button is faded, as seen in the pic.
Seeing as know one realy knows what i should change I will go to my friends house this weekend, he has been using riva tuner longer than I have. Thnx for the efforts

?!?!?!?!
I gave you a tip to customize the graphs' properties and to tick "Show .. in OSD" there, boogieman gave you a link to illustrated guide dedicated for newbies refusing to read context help.
What else do you need?!?

Thanx for the help, but it does not really help the framrate thingy is still faded and I see no way of fixing it.
The entire on screen disply is giving me crap, when I enter a game like, Swat4 i it shows my core temperature From 0,3 to 788... I do not think that can happen

Repeating last time:

Open properties of _EACH_ graph you wanna display in OSD (right click the graph then select <Setup>, then tick <Show ... in OSD> there.
